Stonemason's Daughter, Listener Album Review

[CelticRadio]

Hailing from Western Canada, Kiérah is a singer with a background in classical and a formal education in music, although she set out to stay true to her first love and live up to her fondness for celtic music, performing with fiddle and singing, interpreting some of the most beloved folk melodies and composing her own material.

Her studio efforts "Irish Madness (2008) and "A Fiddle Affair" are solid portraits of a dynamic and polished performer, comfortable on stage as well as within the premises of a recording studio. Her most recent studio effort "A Stonemason's Daughter" sees Kiérah going steady on the same path, accompanied by a great ensemble of musician from the Irish scene, which truly left a mark on the record, along with the vibes and culture and people of that country...

I own a copy of "A Fiddle Affair" and the best description I have is that it is very "sweet". A lovely collection of fiddle playing with no harshness or edginess yet hardly boring. Also, I never get that "I've heard this before" sense that I get when newly released songs all appear to be replicas of other music out there.

I plan on purchasing Stonemason's Daughter. Kiérah has set the bar high with her previous work. If her new release is anywhere close it will be a delight.

I've never heard of her, but I just checked out the link and she sounds pretty good! I love violin and fiddle music.
